Posts, categories, feeds, tags, taxonomies, author pages and search results are restricted to authenticated (connected) users. Only pages are public. So if you have a homepage defined, then this page will be accessible. ## Installation 1. Upload `very-basic-content-restriction` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress 3. Configure the redirection link on the options page. If left empty, users will be redirected to your default WP login page. ## FAQ Q: Can i restrict only some pages and allow others? A: No, a per page or per category configuration is not possible. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/73904e6dbf8755a118f0954f8fb0e21297d4c28a574e6227421f45df5c3ddd88? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Exactly what I was looking for](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/exactly-what-i-was-looking-for-194/)󠁿 [Anonymous User 13912904](https://profiles.wordpress.org/anonymized-13912904/) September 3, 2016 Indeed very basic but exactly what I was looking for.
